Chief officer from Egypt wants to join SS. What are the chances of being accepted?

My cousin has several years experience working on vessels all over the world most recently as Chief Officer. He’s Egyptian. Will that be a hindrance to getting accepted?

Defining Sea Shepherd

Hello everyone. I was thinking about Sea Shepherd's operations of these last years, and I was thinking if we can consider it a sort of private maritime security organization (not company since they lack the "for-profit" status) active in the environmental field, or what could be its status otherwise?

German grey seals need help

Hey all, in Germany we have a huge amount of death strandings of grey seals in the Baltic Sea. All well fed, no signs of infections or diseases based on autopsies, but with net marks and fluid in their trachea. We need stricter regulations to prevent any further occurrences of these events. So even if you don't live in Germany I would appreciate your support to spread the word and increase pressure on the federal institutions in charge: https://chng.it/VPKPTrKfpw

A question about Sea Shepherd transparency.

Hello all,
I'm trying to find information about what Sea Shepherd is doing in the Med, as it's the closest to where I live and to my heart, but it's hard to find any. A quick look through their website yielded two posts from this summer. I clicked on one and it was just 5 paragraphs. That is far from enough to put my money into something.

I'm also subscribed to their YT channel and the only thing they do there is post unconvincing flashy cinematic montages.

My question is:
Is that all? Are there any documents, other websites, or channels where they provide information on what they are doing and how they are spending the money? Is any more info available to donors? Are they more focused elsewhere, not so much in the Med?

I don't have the time to thoroughly check what other donation-supported efforts are doing, but for example, I know of and support Mossy Earth, a group that deals with rewilding various habitats. They provide spending reports, videos that are convincing, detailed, longer, and not flashy, and also actual written reports. Apart from that, they make polls and take into account the suggestions in YouTube comments.

I would love to support Sea Shepherd, but the info they provide I find to be scarce.

Thoughts on sea shepherd depiction in Sea Of Shadow Documentary

I have finished watching the Sea of Shadow film on Hulu and found it inspiring. For the past few days I've been wondering what Sea Shepherd crew members/supporters felt about the film's depiction of Sea Shepherd's contribution to the greater effort to save the vaquita and whether the film impacted positively/negatively to the cause.

Envoy Shark Cull is now on Netflix

Great news - Envoy Shark Cull is now on Netflix. This is such a great film that reveals just how much the Govt of NSW and QLD are treating the public like morons.
The nets are ineffective and were first introduced to Australian waters in 1937! (There are WAY more effective methods now some 87 years later)
They kill so many innocent marine animals - they ensnare migrating whales and are not a failproof way at all to protect swimmers. There are other better options and they should be using them.

Remove the drum lines, Remove the nets!!!
